My wife got me a 4 pound duck at Eastern Market, because she knows me and loves me.
Day 1: Roast duck with five-spice powder. Stock from the carcass.
Day 2: Yorkshire pudding baked in duck fat. Salad with duck cracklings.
Day 3: Fingerling potatoes roasted in duck fat.
Day 4: Duck liver mousse (padded with chicken liver). Deviled heart and kidney, plus one liver piece I accidentally left out of the mousse.
Still to come: risotto with duck stock and the remaining cracklings.
I'm not sure why I can't get a week's worth of meals out of a 4 pound chicken, which has twice as much meat on it. Possibly just not as inspiring.
